ROS‐Driven Nanoventilator for MRSA‐Induced Acute Lung Injury Treatment via In Situ Oxygen Supply, Anti‐Inflammation and Immunomodulation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A ROS‐driven in situ oxygen supply nanoventilator based on enzyme nanocapsule can convert ROS into O2 through enzyme cascade reaction between SOD and CAT to relieve lung hypoxia, and kill MRSA by releasing vancomycin, which effectively reduces HIF‐1α expression and balances pro‐inflammatory/anti‐inflammatory macrophages ratio, thereby reducing the ...

Classification of pediatric pneumonia using chest X-rays by functional regression [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
An accurate and prompt diagnosis of pediatric pneumonia is imperative for successful treatment intervention. One approach to diagnose pneumonia cases is using radiographic data. In this article, we propose a novel parsimonious scalar-on-image classification model adopting the ideas of functional data analysis.
